Well prepared retrofit to reduce high follow-up costs

摘要

When deciding on a ballast water system, the installation situation plays a decisive role. Steinbach Ingenieurtechnik (SI-Tech-nik), as exclusive sales and service representative of Norwegian BWMS manufacturer Greentech (BGT), promotes a well-prepared retrofit in order to avoid high follow-up costs. The company provides technical support for these systems and offers project planning, installation and commissioning expertise. NGT's BWMS are based on filtration and UV treatment. For NGTs developer, formerly a chief engineer himself, it was important that the systems were small, robust and easy to operate. The manufacturer states, the systems have a small footprint and an easy-to-use wiper system for cleaning the UV lamps and UV sensors, eliminating the need for CIP dosing units or citric acid. The limited space available on board is a challenge. In addition to installation, thought should be given to maintenance early in the process. ?Since NGT BWMS are compact, the decisive basic requirement for a retrofit has already been met,? SI-Technik says. If there is not enough space for a system on frames, the company supplies flexible designs.
